Echoes of Resistance: The UNR Governor’s Day Protest

Join hosts Sophia Nebesky and Piper Heath as they uncover the 1970 anti-war demonstrations that rocked the University of Nevada, Reno campus in the wake of Nixon's decision to send U.S. troops into Cambodia and the subsequent Kent State shootings. Through oral histories and an interview with history professor Dr. Christopher von Nagy, they examine how the university's response to faculty involvement during this turbulent period mirrors contemporary challenges to academic freedom and campus activism.
